The command G81 performs a deep drilling operation, where the drill retracts completely out of the hole at each peck. The definition of one of these operations is called a one pass cycle.If a repetition of the cycle is required, only the values that change need to be entered into

The G76 command ( thread cutting cycle) contains, within two blocks, all the information required to generate a standard thread form and pitch. A G76 uses one edge cutting to reduce the load on the tool tip. Syntax of thread cutting cycle (G76) command A G76 command is written in

The G74 code instructs the machine to perform a peck drilling cycle. The centreline of the drill runs parallel to the Z axis, ie, the drill will make holes in the face end of the billet. Peck drilling refers to the method used for removing the material, ie, the the

The function of the G73 canned cycle is to permit the cutting of a programmed profile repeatedly. It is mainly used for machined parts where the rough shape has already been formed by either rough machining, forging or casting. Where:F = FeedrateR = Repeat patterns.U (1) = Distance and direction

The G75 command permits grooving in the X axis. A chip break cycle is also possible – chip breaking is the same as drilling in pecking stages to limit swarf size. A G75 command is written in the following format : G75 R (1) ; G75 X (U) Z (W)

The G72 code commands a multiple repetitive cycle, sometimes referred to as a canned cycle. Canned cycles are used within a CNC program to simplify programming, since only the dimensions describing the required component profile are required. The CNC control will then generate the roughing cuts (Stock Removal in Facing)
